Funded Activity Summary

Topological phases of matter for quantum computation. A global effort is underway to build quantum computers at scale. There are promising approaches based on quantum phases of matter with exotic topological properties that are harnessed to protect fragile quantum information. This project aims to take advantage of recent breakthroughs in three dimensional topological phases to discover new materials and design better components for quantum computers. This addresses the significant question of what the analogue of a transistor will be in a full scale quantum computer. Benefits include classification of three dimensional topological phases and the discovery of better routes to scalable quantum computing, potentially causing a fundamental shift in the direction of this global research effort.
